Javították

Javították is a Hungarian verb form derived from the infinitive javítani, meaning to repair, fix, or improve. It is the past tense, third person plural form, and it can be used in both active and passive-style contexts depending on the sentence. In active use, it means “they repaired” (for example, they repaired something). In contexts where the subject performing the action is unknown or generalized, javították can also convey “it was repaired” or “has been corrected.”

Typical usage includes reporting completed repairs or corrections. For example, A gépet javították (The machine was repaired), A hibát javították tegnap (They fixed the fault yesterday). The agent performing the action may be a technician, a team, an automated process, or a broader organization, but is often left unspecified in neutral statements. The form is common in journalism, maintenance logs, manuals, and editorial notes where a completed action is being described.

Morphology and related forms: javították is formed from the verb stem javít- with the third-person plural past tense suffix -ták. The exact interpretation—active versus passive-like—depends on context and accompanying words. Related forms include javítják (present tense, they repair), javított (past tense, singular or participle form), and megjavítják (they repair it completely or fix it). The word’s core meaning centers on correction or repair, whether physical, technical, or textual.

In summary, javították functions as a versatile past tense form signaling that a repair or correction has been completed, with the specific agent often left unspecified.
